I had both my eyes done in my late 50’s before all these new lenses became available. It is fifteen years later and I have perfect 20/20 vision for distance without the use of glasses. On the golf course everyone asks me if I saw their ball. In poor light and for very small print I do need reading glasses. If I forget my glasses I can read a book with normal size print but I choose to wear my glasses most times. I have never found any of this an inconvenience so I would recommend you get the normal lenses and save yourself almost seven thousand dollars unless you have money to burn.
